CNS 2020 Day 2 Highlights

May 3, 2020

Day 2 of CNS 2020 Virtual started off strong with the first invited symposium, chaired by Christoph Kayser, and featuring a terrific panel of speakers on the role causal inference for perceptual decisions and adaptive behavior. Midday, Marlene Behrmann (Carnegie Melon University) delivered her Fred Kavli Distinguished Career Contributions in Cognitive Neuroscience award lecture on hemispheric organization for visual recognition, and the sessions for the day ended with symposia on a range of topics, from the manipulating brain networks and affective neuroscience of SES to mechanisms of information-seeking and development and plasticity of high-level vision and cognition. Throughout the day, participants from around the world shared research in poster sessions and visit booth from our Exhibitors. Check out some highlights from Twitter here:

Now up #CNS2020: Uta Noppeney on casual inference in multisensory perception pic.twitter.com/JAId4jMiAT

— CNS News (@CogNeuroNews) May 3, 2020

Example of casual inference problem: See a bird on a branch and you hear a bird singing — do you integrate or segregate? Is it one bird you can see and hear? Or, is it one bird you can hear and another you can see?
How do you know? Noppeny’s modeling work explores…. #CNS2020

Exhibition Hall-

This is a novelty: parked at my kitchen table to populate a virtual ‘booth’ to represent @RSocPublishing at #CNS2020. If you’re attending the meeting, do pop by the exhibitors’ ‘hall’ and get in touch.
